Sydney Lokale came off the bench to hand AFC Leopards all three points as Ingwe returned to winning ways in the FKF Premier League on Saturday.
Leopards secured a hard-fought 1-0 win against a resolute Bidco United in Thika with new signing Lokale showing good centre forward play to break the deadlock 10 minutes from time.

Harambee Stars rise six places in latest FIFA rankings
Harambee Stars have moved six places up in the latest FIFA rankings following their draw and a win against Zimbabwe and Namibia.
The former Kariobangi Sharks man directed the ball in the net after meeting it in the box to break Bidco’s hearts after Anthony Akhulia’s men had made life tough for them.
It was the second goal for the striker in three games after opening his Ingwe account on matchday one when they thrashed Mathare United 4-0.
Crucially for Tomas Trucha and his team, it was a return to winning ways after last weekend’s 1-0 loss to Posta Rangers with the win seeing them move to second on the table on six points from three matches, one behind KCB before Sunday’s matches.
The first half of the contest witnessed few chances from either side but Rangers should have scored first the break when Brian Mboya missed a close-range header after a poor clearances from Lewis Bandi.
